Very good, stopped by for a light lunch! Salad was very tasty and the anchovies as well. Friendly stuff, and nice beach ambience during the day. Thanks!
A lovely minimalist but stylish little Greek restaurant on the seafront right by the sandy beach. We had anchovies salad (so fresh and even the onions tasted sweet!), fried courgette (as light as tempra!) as starters and crab risotto and Orzo with shrimp (but they are more like prawns as they were not small). They were all beautifully presented and full of flavour. Would recommend booking a table beside the beach and time it for sunset!
I had the best experience at this restaurant in Chania and would give it more than five stars if possible. Everything about my visit was top-notch, from the food to the service to the atmosphere. I ordered the grilled octopus, which was super tender and charrred. I also had the green salad with walnuts and figs that was solid. The iced latte was awesome (you'd be suprised that some places screw that up) but they did a great job. After my meal, they gave me with a complimentary baklava. It was sticky, sweet, and had a deep caramel flavor that made it unforgettable. I ended up sitting oceanfront for a few hours, just enjoying the view—it was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what I needed. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated with flowers, and the vibe is warm and inviting. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive; they even called me a taxi and let me order from the lunch menu during breakfast service. Can't wait to go back!
The kebabs were a bit salty but still tasted decently. The linguine with seafood was really good. The only complaint was that there was not enough seafood in ratio to pasta size. Mussels were basically meatless.
A top experience in Chania! Achinios is more than just a restaurant – it’s a full seaside experience. The terrace sits right on the shore, the ambiance is calm and refined, and every detail is thoughtfully designed. But what truly made the evening unforgettable was our waiter – Constantin. A true professional: friendly, attentive, with just the right touch of humor. He made our dinner feel special. The seafood was outstanding, cocktails were fresh and perfectly mixed, and the sea view? Absolutely stunning. If you’re in Chania, don’t miss Achinios – and if you get the chance, ask for Constantin. I’ll definitely be back! — George
